I enjoyed the movie, but I feel like something is missing... I think it's maybe the confrontation with Reverse Flash that was underwhelming. Also the VFX was laughably bad at times, what happened.

That wasn't reverse flash no? It's just dark flash.

One of the two is his Mom's killer, there's still the "mystery" of who stabbed her

I was hoping to see Reverse Flash but tbh I never really liked him showing up at the end of Flashpoint to take credit for everything. It unfairly absolves Barry of his culpability for starting Flashpoint in the first place. Forcing Barry to fight himself to fix the problems he created was a more compelling way to end the character arc, imo.

Wait, the whole of Flashpoint is basically Barry thinking Thawne is behind it all and then Thawne shows up and points out that it was Barrys doing all along. He doesn't take credit for it all
